zany dog exploits – and other tails

High Above Me

Crow 1

Is it a Bird? Is it a Plane?

It’s SuperCrow!

I heard one crow cawing high above me as I was bringing in the washing one afternoon. I craned my neck back and saw it circling round and round.

It was soon joined by another crow and then another. I dashed inside for my trusty Canon and leaning right back took a few photos of what looked to me like clear blue skies. I knew the crows were circling away up there because I could still hear them cawing now and then, but they were far away and very hard to see.

However, I did manage to catch all five of them in one shot in the end.

We have a lot of crows here, they seem to like the beach probably because of the shells and creatures still in them.. We have also seen several gang up on birds of prey, especially buzzards, in the summer.
